I take the point above that he would have suffered greatly after the fall: this is true and it is sad that he was in so much pain and it affected his moods. Katherine was more or less left destitute and in political limbo after the death of Arthur while Henry VII and Ferdinand argued back and forth about her dowry

He had little difficulty in securing the Acts of Annates, Appeals and Supremacy which completed the separation from Rome, or the dissolution of the monasteries which, by transferring enormous wealth from the church to the crown, really, in Cecil's opinion, ensured the reformation.
